The Digital Hiring Landscape in Leicester: What’s Holding Teams Back?

Short Supply of Specialist Skills

Roles like Cloud Architects, RPA Developers and AI Engineers are in rising demand across Leicester, but the talent pool remains small. Businesses must compete with larger cities to secure the right expertise.

Bridging Business and Technology

As digital projects become more strategic, companies need professionals who can connect business objectives with technical execution, such as Change Managers, Business Analysts and Product Owners. But finding talent with both commercial and digital fluency can be difficult.

Retaining Top Talent

Leicester’s central location makes it a prime target for recruiters from London, Birmingham, and Manchester. Without competitive packages or clear career progression, many local employers struggle to hold on to their best digital minds.
